From people who came through it
“If you're just starting this, I want to say it's a strange kind of loss. You're grieving someone who is still here. That's allowed. Some days you'll be fine and then a song or a smell will hit you and you'll be back in the car crying. It's not linear. And if you have a sibling who doesn't help, try not to let it eat you up. You can't make them care. Just focus on the time you have. You won't regret being there.”
soft.pine · been through anticipatory grief“The first time you forget she was ever different, that's the worst. I won't lie. It doesn't get easier. But you learn to live in the gaps. The crossword still helps. Coffee. The train. Small things. Don't expect anyone to understand. They won't. But you'll find your people. The ones who nod without saying anything. Hold onto them. And hold onto the good days. They come. Even now.”
Student nurse in Guwahati 7 · been through anticipatory grief“If you're scared right now, I get it. In 2023, that was me. I remember every visit could be the last like it was yesterday. I picked up the guitar again. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
Slow Birch · been through anticipatory grief“Reading this late at night? I've been there. I was right where you are two years ago. For me, dad is in palliative care. I picked up the guitar again. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.”
